There is a new 'dynpart' command, which when executed uses the
compile-time board-level net partiton sizes, combined with the
bad-block-table to generate the device-specific 'dynamic' partition
table. The result is stored in the mtdparts environment variable.
Everything else is standard u-boot/kernel behaviour.
Please see the attached patch (just for reference, not inclusion yet)
for the details of the implementation. This code was used successfully
in the production/flashing of a couple of thousand devices, using
the Samsung NAND flash chips I mentioned (up to 1.3MByte of bad blocks
within 64MByte of total flash). We have seen quite a number of
different device-specific partition tables, and everything has worked
fine so far.
Just like with the 'dynenv' patch, I think it is something quite useful
(if not neccessarry) for the economic large-scale production of
NAND-flash only devices. We can always talk about the implementation
details, and I'm willing to address any feedback regarding it.

yes.

nand-dynamic_partitions.patch
This patch adds support for 'dynamic partitions'. This basically
works as follows:
* The nand code generates a bad-block-table at the first scan of the chip
* The dynamic partition code calculates the raw partition sizes based on
the bad block table. E.g. if you have a partition of size 0x30000, and there are
two bad blocks (0x4000 each) in it, the raw size will increase to 0x38000, and the
following partitions get shifted towards the end of flash.
Please note that currently the desired partition sizes are stored at compile-time
in an array in drivers/nand/nand_bbt.c, so this definitely needs to change before
submitting/merging upstream.
In order to calculate the partiton map (and set mtdparts accordingly), you can use
the 'dynpart' command at the prompt. Use 'saveenv' to make the setting permanent.
